- Yes, Basile Morin, it's a mandala. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:19, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- Abstain According to the file name, I thought it was this sculpture recently nominated seen from another angle, in the same room. Now I realize it is a photomontage. And I don't understand the idea of "Mandala" in its spiritual dimension. Apparently the entrepreneur Dale Chihuly installed this glass artwork on the ceiling of the casino Bellagio in Las Vegas. As long as the author of the sculpture is mentioned, and the transformation allowed, I have nothing against the derivative work to be hosted here, but as FP I doubt it is a faithful representation of the original work. Perhaps an interesting digital symmetrical assemblage, but more an anecdotal patchwork than a sacred "Mandala artwork" in my view. I choose to abstain because the educational scope of this candidature is unclear to me -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:38, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- CommentThank you for your opinion. My work was created with a personal photograph of Dale Chihuly Sculpture in Bellagio Las Vegas.- Nevada (USA), (original photography: File:Fiori di Como by Dale Chihuly at the Bellagio Hotel & Casino. in Las Vegas 2016.jpg). This work was done for the new challenge features 2022 – Septembre Abstract photography, with the software Gimp 2.10.32. Filtre/Distorsions/Kaleidoscope. (The category mandala may be improper). Best regards.-

- Thanks for your comment. A mix of sculpture / photography and collage / montage. However the FoP in the USA is not okay for 3D artworks. I wonder if the original picture is allowed on Commons -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:03, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose I would rather see the original sculpture. Is it not rather unrespectful to try to improve on someone's artwork by creating your a mandala?. Possible copyright issues, but I don't know. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:18, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Charlesjsharp: When will you stop making nonsense votes and comments on FPC? Yann (talk) 17:52, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- Please explain what you mean. As an Admin. I assume you are being serious. Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:59, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- Yann I am still wating for an explanation for why you cose to be so rude in calling my edits "nonsense". Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:41, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- I am not talking as an admin, but as a participant of FPC. Reading your negative comments, it seems that, outside of wildlife photography, you don't know what you are talking about. They are either irrelevant, beside the point, or completely out of touch with photography technics and standards. They make the whole FPC a pain. Several contributors reduced their participation, or left. No wonder why with people like you. Others would probably abstain in such cases, but that supposes knowning one's ignorance. You may say: "But I am entitled to say so." Yes, FPC rules even allow stupid comments. Probably, they shouldn't... Yann (talk) 09:56, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- Please, Yann, have a look at the hundreds of "per Charles" in the archives (example 21 occurrences last month, including yours ) and perhaps you'll realize that your jugement is rather inadequate. Charles' reviews are very often singular and personal, but also constructive in general. In any case diversity is an asset at FPC in my opinion. The reason given to justify the vote here is provided in the first sentence. Then the rest seems to be questions about copyright or moral concerns. No outrage in my view.

- Cautious support I think this is transformative enough a use to not be a derivative work of the original sculpture and get over the threshold of originality in US copyright law to be a free image. But since no one else has commented on this I'm not confident in saying so. Daniel Case (talk) 18:23, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
